This month I finally made some forward progress....I'm loving how it is shaping up. I've deviated off pattern, and work as I please, as opposed to in any logical order or completing one part at a time. I'm sure I might regret this later, but for now, I'm enjoying it as it allows me to work through different colors :)

Not a lot of stitching has happened lately but I was able to get some time in with Secret Victorian Garden. When I last posted, it was here:

Unfortunately, I misread the key and had to pull out all that blue but after the frogging it was fairly smooth stitching to here:

I hope to finish the green on the willow tree and the windows in the wall before its rotation time is up tomorrow. And yes, there are two different colors in the willow branches. I misread that color too way back when and didn't notice until I was much too far along to frog so I changed the rest of the corners to match.

We are a group of friends and stitchers who are in love (AND lust!!) with Châtelaine Designs by Martina Rosenberg. Join us as we explore the intricacies and beauty of her designs, and celebrate with us as these stitched masterpieces unfold.
